Thermal storage incorporated in the mechanical system for printing works to
offset peak loads
The electrical consumption of a printing works can be reduced by utilising
thermal storage loads. In order to achieve a balance between 100% outdoor
air and conditioned air, different ventilation schemes were compared. The
subsequent cooling load derived from the comparison was further evaluated to
see if a chiller plant together with a thermal storage system would reduce
energy costs.

Printing what, newspapers or something else?
I published an ASHRAE paper on conditioning a printing works several years ago, this may help?
Peter Simmonds, Ph.D.
It's a book-printing facility, with book binding machine and all.
Yes, I think that will help. What is the details of the paper?
The names and emails on this page may be of prime interest:

Apparently there's a variety of funded research ongoing for this exact topic!

Ery, try this?
